Help the staff of the Joplin Globe

September 15, 2011

Dear NNA members,

Many friends in our newspaper community have lost their homes in the Joplin, MO, tornado. Police say there are 116 fatalities and that number is likely to rise. CNHI-owned Joplin Globe reports its homeless employees have shown up to work to report on the disaster.

The following relief information for the newspaper people was posted today by Doug Crews, executive director of Missouri Press Association. We thought you would like to be aware of the opportunity to help.
